Description
Summary:In this article we study one of the famous reports of the Brazilian photographer Sebastião Salgado: “The gold mine of Serra Pelada. State of Pará. Brazil”.

The report about the gold mine interrogates the relation between man and profit, the border between humanity and animality, including the persistence of relations of domination in Latin America at the end of the 20th century.
